WORTH REPEATING...
"A book is like a man - clever and dull, brave and cowardly, beautiful
and ugly. For every flowering thought there will be a page like a wet
and mangy mongrel, and for every looping flight a tap on the wing and a
reminder that wax cannot hold the feathers firm too near the sun."
        John Steinbeck
